VIS has designed its teaching and learning on universal pedagogical practices that use trans-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, and multi-disciplinary approaches and are appropriate to various stages (Grades 5 to 12), making it a student-centric experiential learning. Educators here facilitate an inquisitive approach to learning through project-based teaching methods. Guided learning and attention to students’ voices and choices are the two core values that inspire the teaching- learning process at VIS. At the school, we encourage independent research and create opportunities to display knowledge acquisition, thereby imparting students with the competency to fit into globally- renowned colleges and universities for their tertiary education.

Art, craft, music, dance and drama are integral to the curriculum and students’ life at VIS. This ignites passion among students to pursue them. This helps the all-round development of children and helps them blossom as fine individuals. VIS engages well-known artists and experts to train students in dance, theatre, sculpture, and Indian & Western music of their choice.

The VISDOM Framework is aimed to articulate VIS’s Student Profile Building Program model that consistently and reliably predicts success for all students when implemented effectively - one that is aligned with the school’s articulated purpose of education and grounded in evidence.

• To put our beliefs into practice, we must clearly define desired student outcomes. Students and their families want to understand the long-term outcomes of VIS education. A set of achievable goals actualizes our beliefs about human potential and helps measure our progress along the way.
• After a careful review of the most prominent competency and curriculum frameworks across the globe, five student learning outcomes have emerged. A VIS graduate will leave our doors only after demonstrating mastery in the following five building blocks:
• Sense of Purpose: Self-knowledge, values, relationships, and a credible path
• Habits of Success: Behaviours, mind sets, and personalities
• Academic Knowledge: Rigorous content learning and development across all academic subjects
• Competencies : Interdisciplinary, higher-order thinking skills
• Beyond Academics : Co-curricular, Extra- curricular, residential life skills

As a residential school, VIS fully understands the need for guardianship and adult supervision in the formative years. A houseparent – an experienced residential faculty member lives with the students to help them fulfil their needs.

The houseparent creates awareness of various issues and guides them, help overcome the challenges they face every day.

The houseparent guides and motivates students to help identify their strengths, weaknesses and opportunities by reaching out with the much-needed critical support.

They help boarders value the importance of discipline, leaving an indelible imprint in their lives forever.
